SERUM IgA Test

What is the SERUM IgA Test?

The IgA Antibody Test or Immunoglobulin Test measures the level of IgA antibodies in the blood. Additionally, the IgA test can check for some autoimmune illnesses and malignancies. However, IgA tests are not very specific, meaning they cannot specify the source of IgA level changes; they are just used to measure the levels of antibodies. Additional tests are performed in conjunction with it to determine the underlying cause of the issue.

Why Done?
